At the moment, master is the default branch name both for git and at this gitea instance.
There is a config parameter that allows changing it in gitea.

This is a non-issue imo. The default branch has been called master from time immemorial and I see no reason to even consider changing it. This naming convention also predates git, or any other scm and is still in use in the industries from which it was borrowed.

while historically this has been true, the stance on the matter appears to be changing even in git, that is why I thought it's relevant to bring this up.
